I've been using it for a little more than a month. So far I like it. The design of the film strip holder is, IMHO, a real plus especially when I remember what I went through with curled strips in the holder of the late Polaroid Sprintscan 4000. Scanning at 5400 is slow - approximately 90 seconds per frame before writing of the file begins. And at 5400 every little bit of crud on the film appears on the screen. The overall design is good, and installation on a Mac platform did not require the use of intemperate language.
